When to use
Use when the user explicitly asks the agent to remember something, or when a turn produces a durable decision, preference, or finding worth storing for later sessions.
Triggers:
- "Remember that …"
- "Save this for later."
- "Add a note that …"
- End-of-turn consolidation after a non-trivial conclusion.
Inputs
content (required) — the statement to store, in the user's own words where possible.
- Optional: category hint (preference, decision, fact, procedure).
- Optional: related entity or project name.
Procedure
- Confirm the content is durable — it should still be useful days or weeks from now.
- Strip any secrets, credentials, or transient context (current PID, test run timestamps).
- Rephrase only if needed for clarity. Keep the user's voice.
- Call
remnic_memory_store with the text as content. Include category/entity hints if the tool schema supports them.
- Confirm to the user what was stored, in one line.
- Mention that the memory is now available across connected agents (Claude Code, Codex, Hermes, OpenClaw).
Efficiency plan
- Batch closely related facts into a single memory rather than writing many tiny ones.
- If a prior memory on the same topic already exists, prefer an update-in-place phrasing over a fresh write.
- Do not store anything that can be re-derived trivially from source code or docs.
Pitfalls and fixes
- Pitfall: Storing transient state like "user is running tests now". Fix: Only commit facts that will still matter tomorrow.
- Pitfall: Accidentally including a secret or token. Fix: Redact before calling the tool; reject any content that matches known secret patterns.
- Pitfall: Duplicate memories on the same topic. Fix: Recall first; prefer update over re-store.
- Pitfall: Vague entries ("user likes clean code"). Fix: Be specific — who, what, when, why.
Verification checklist
Tool names: canonical name is remnic_memory_store. The legacy engram_memory_store alias remains accepted during v1.x.
